Mwangi has enjoyed huge success abroad in the past few years following her self-titled EP released in 2016.

Speaking on the new deal, Mwangi promised better content and increased penetration in Africa.

“I’m really excited in joining the Rockstar and Tsunami fam starting with a whole new exciting chapter in rolling out both loads of new music and in addition an increased pan African focus! Africa I’m coming… get ready!” she said.

So far, Mwangi’s work has been featured in films such as American Pie Presents: The Naked Mile and Save the Last Dance 2, CSI: NY and Scrubs, Rough Night and Bad Moms Christmas, hit television such as Insecure, Being MaryJane, Rosewood and the video game sensation Just Dance 2019.
